Realview TV to Create Enhanced Virtual Campus Experience for Louisiana State University

2011 // May

Set for filming in fall, the project encompasses the signature VCE package with other customized, first-time features designed to elevate the world-renowned university’s online presence. 

"Having the opportunity to work with a global name in education, such as LSU, is an honor that underlines our reputation to produce outstanding Web-based experiences," said Courtney Cable, Realview TV Vice President Education Channel. "The finished product will be a great online asset for LSU."

Up to 30 video segments will bring LSU student life into perspective, covering everything from academics to accommodation. Students will be the de-facto tour guides and focus of these HD videos, which are formatted to ensure excellent streaming quality across all bandwidth speeds.

Unique to this project, however, is the incorporation of options-based content selections, which are defined by education marketer Hobsons EMT Connect as relevant to prospective students.

In addition, online visitors will soon be able to tour LSU's extensive campus through an interactive 3-D map, taken from a birds-eye perspective and navigated with a mouse.   
 
Furthermore, the package will be formatted for hosting compatibility on a wide range of social media outlets, such as Facebook.

"The project's scope not only consolidates a spectrum of available technology, but brings the end-user a more in-depth look at what the LSU experience looks like," said Lori Kemp, Director, Web & New Media Development. "LSU is very excited and pleased to be able to work with Realview TV on this project."
